Yesterday we brought you the news that a Muslim professor who says she has expertise in “Islamophobia” claims she was assaulted at a conference of Canadians for the Rule of Law. According to “journalist” Ron Csillag of the Canadian Jewish News, Jasmin Zine, the professor making the assault claim, “said she did not plan on speaking” at the conference. Csillag quoted Zine saying: “I went really just to hear the viewpoints that were being expressed and the kind of arguments that were being made to support them.”
Really? Let’s examine the likelihood of that claim.
Jasmin Zine is part of the “Islamophobia Research and Documentation Project,” an initiative designed to buttress the spurious claim that Muslims are targets of wholesale discrimination and harassment in the West.
In April 2018, Jasmin Zine gave a keynote speech on “Islamophobia, Anti- Muslim Racism, and the Weaponizing of Free Speech” at “The Road Traveled: 9th Annual International Islamophobia Conference,” held at the University of California Berkeley.
Jasmin Zine testified in support of the Anti-Islamophobia Motion 103 before a Canadian Heritage Parliamentary subcommittee. That motion has been used to shut down criticism of jihad terror and Sharia oppression of women and others.
Zine defines “Islamophobia” as “fear and hatred of Islam and Muslims that translates into individual, ideological and systemic forms of oppression.” In reality, “Islamophobia” is an intentional conflation of two distinct and unrelated phenomena: vigilante attacks against innocent Muslims, which are never justified, and honest, accurate analysis of the motivating ideology behind the jihad threat. The purveyors of “Islamophobia” propaganda are trying to shut down the latter by equating it with the former. A former member of the International Institute of Islamic Thought, Abdur-Rahman Muhammad, has stated that “this loathsome term is nothing more than a thought-terminating cliche conceived in the bowels of Muslim think tanks for the purpose of beating down critics.” And it has been skillfully used to do just that.
Zine does want to restrict the freedom of speech. She has claimed: “As an academic, I support free speech as well as academic freedom. But these are not without limitations. Freedom of expression is limited by the consequences of that speech. Spreading hate is not free speech.” But who decides what is “spreading hate” and what is “enunciating unpopular truths”? She is essentially arguing for the extinguishing of the freedom of speech and the control of the public discourse by arbiters who would presumably stifle all criticism of Islam, jihad, and Sharia.
So Jasmin Zine went wanting to “hear the viewpoints that were being expressed”? Unlikely. What she did was ask Jihad Watch writer Christine Douglass-Williams a question and then talked over her answer, refusing to be silent until she was removed from the event. It is clear that she wanted to shut down the viewpoints that were being expressed and smear them with the false claims of “white supremacism” and “Islamophobia” that she makes in the Canadian Jewish News article.
That article also notes that the Canadians for the Rule of Law conference had “a large Jewish presence: sponsoring groups included B’nai Brith Canada, the Canadian Institute for Jewish Research, Hasbara Fellowships, Shurat HaDin and Canadians for Israel’s Legal Rights. Kashrut was observed at the event.”
What might Jasmin Zine have thought of that? Let’s see:
Jasmin Zine signed this petition accusing Israel of “apartheid” and calling on the University of Toronto and York University to divest from companies doing business with Israel.
Zine also signed this call for the Canadian government to impose sanctions upon Israel for alleged war crimes in Gaza in 2009. During that conflict, Hamas used human shields in order to get civilians killed, whereupon they would accuse Israel of targeting civilians and get the UN and others to condemn the Jewish State.
Zine endorsed sending a boat from Canada to Gaza to end the Israeli blockade. Remember that the people on the most notorious of these forays to Gaza to end the blockade, the Mavi Marmara flotilla from Turkey, were genocidal Jew-hating jihadis, as you can see in the second video below: they were chanting a jihad war cry recalling Muhammad’s massacre of the Jews of Arabia: “Khybar, Khybar, O Jews, the army of Muhammad will return.” If the same chant had begun on a Canadian boat bound for Gaza, would Jasmin Zine have objected?
All this makes it highly likely that Jasmin Zine went to the Canadians for the Rule of Law conference not to listen to and consider opposing viewpoints, but to provoke an incident that she could claim as evidence of the conference’s “Islamophobia.” If we had any actual journalism today, this angle would be being investigated. Instead, we have the Canadian Jewish News.

Islamaphobia exists, *IF* the following boxes are ticked.
Islam teaches peace. Islam teaches tolerance of all other religions. Islam teaches separation of Church (or Mosque) and State. Islam teaches freedom of religion – a Muslim can leave Islam and that’s OK, in other words.
Islam fails miserably on all these counts, Therefore, so-called Islamaphobia cannot possibly exist because fear of such a totalitarian, authoritarian, autocratic, dictatorial, tyrannical, oppressive, repressive, absolutist, undemocratic, anti-democratic, illiberal, despotic, fascist, dystopian ideology is justified and perfectly understandable!
This woman’s a clown!

The woman is more than a clown … she is a secret agent.

A study of harassment in the west? Who does she think is doing the harassment in the west? Not the western citizenry but Muslims of course..prove me wrong Ms Zine.
Jayme says
I don’t think we should put up with hate towards any group and the most hated group is the white male.
Michael Garant says
White occidental heterosexual male having no gender identification problem ;0)
mortimer says
But Jayme … Islam simplifies this … Muslims hate literally EVERYONE who is not a Muslim … ‘for the sake of Allah.’
Muslims would have to stop reciting the FATIHA prayer which curses Jews and Christians 17 times a day !!
Westman says
It seems that Allah hasn’t spent much time listening. Must be too busy torturing apostates and unbelievers. Fitting and replacing skins must take some time. Their original skins were made by DNA instructions from their parents, not by Allah. It must be a real burden to make all those billions of new skins for burning off, and so depressingly pointless to create, only to destroy. Poor Allah, chained to the writings of the perfect book, as it was dictated by the perfect man.
Ren says
Victimization and more victimization. It’s the favorite game of the muslims.
mortimer says
Muslims who try to extinguish the freedom of expression are imitating Mohammed.
Westman says
Let’s adapt Zine’s definition to another group and see how it fits: ISRAELOPHOBIA is “fear and hatred of (Israel) and (Jews) that translates into individual, ideological and systemic forms of oppression.”
That expresses Islam and the far left socialists rather well. It seems that Zine might be an Israelophobic.

Her “academic” field is gender and how wonderful islam is. Case closed.
mortimer says
‘Islamic feminism’ is an oxymoron similar to ‘Jewish Nazi’, ‘Black KKK member’, ‘jumbo shrimp’, ‘pretty ugly’ or ‘militant pacifist’.
Who is her real boss? Who is giving her her orders?
PABLO says
Mr. Spencer thank you for embarrassing Ron Csillag and the CJN by connecting the dots; exposing the underlying motive of CJN in publishing the lady’s bogus claims and her obvious motive for attending the conference. This also included using the police to give traction to her bogus claims.
Jaladhi says
No Muslim can ever be believed – they are liars!!
mortimer says
Muslims don’t even trust each other because they know Islam has SIX DIFFERENT WAYS TO DECEIVE: taqiyya (or muda’arat), tawriyya, kitman, taysir, tawriya, muruna, darura.
A Muslim need never run out of options for lying to kafirs and other Muslims … how convenient, how amoral … but so is Allah and so was Mohammed.
Joss says
And ALWAYS, Jalahdi, victims!
mortimer says
Jasmin Zine was delusionally ‘assaulted’ in the identical manner as Jussie Smollett. It occurred in her enraged imagination. Hundreds of people at the conference saw no assault.
Her arrest by an authorized special constable was hardly an ‘assault’. It was a lawful arrest.
Jasmin Zine hates kafirs ‘for the sake of Allah’ … Al Walaa wal Baraa.
So, when a Muslim hates the kafirs that much, any falsehood, deception, taqiyya or exaggeration is COMMENDABLE in defeating them.
Jasmin Zine is amoral and seen to be such. The whole episode is recorded. I hope they will put it on youtube so she can be exposed as a fraud.
mortimer says
Jasmin Zine hilariously stated: “Spreading hate is not free speech.”
Well, what is AL WALAA WAL BARAA ???
Baraa is:
– To Hate
– To keep distance from
– To be enemy to
– To desert
– To decline to help
– To disrespect
– To put down
– Not to ally with
– Not to support
Allah ordered Muslims to have Baraa (to be cleansed) from the dirty kufaar and from kufr and shirk.
-Imam Abdul-Latif ibn Abdur-Rahman Rahimullah said, “It is not possible for someone to realize Tawheed (Islamic faith) and act upon it, and yet not be HOSTILE against the mushrikeen (i.e. wrong worshippers). So anyone who isn’t HOSTILE against the mushrikeen, then it cannot be said that he acts upon Tawheed nor that he realizes it.” [ad-Durar as-Saniyyah 8/167]
-“The doctrine of al Walaa wal Baraa is the REAL IMAGE for the actual practice of this faith.” – source “Al Walaa wal Baraa According to the Aqeedah of the Salaf”, by Sheikh Muhammad Saeed al Qatani, authoritative Saudi Sharia lawyer and imam at the Abu Bakr and Al Furqan Mosques in Mecca.

See a moslim and you see a liar. They are taught to lie and lie and lie some more.
See a moslim and you see a hater. They are taught to hate and hate and hate some more.
“Like father, like son (and daughter)” when the father is satan and his children, men and women, copy his evil, rotten, hating, lying example.
satan began this trouble thousands of years ago. He has incited his human children to continue making trouble, and like him, they make trouble any way they can. This won’t end until he is eliminated;, he and his demon angels. His earthly children still have a choice…but not for very much longer.

Canada: Muslim prof who claims she was assaulted at conference has long record of “Islamophobia” propagandizing
………………….
Yep.
terry says
Sharia is already practiced on our state sponsored media outlet in Canada CBC, islam is off limits to criticism while christianity id fair game.
Many of those who dare to offer any truth or criticism of islam have had their accounts disabled.
Bob Builder says
How many Sharia ruling countries are there?
So why migrate to western countries and import Sharia, Hate and destruction?
That’s your plan according to your actions and the Quran and 1000 years of historical data..
